The predator in front of him with its smooth purple leather skin almost reptiline like but way too smooth. Sips it's dose of water calm, the surrounding area is free of trees just some grass and bushes before the muddy wetland from where it's drinking. The moon hangs high in the providing enough light without straining ones eyes.
Njuko has entered the river and is using some floating plants for cover. He swims slowly past the predator with the natural winding of the river into the wetland. He can come up behind the predator and possibly force into the water from there. The surrounding area is clear there is no others of its kind around so it's probably a solitary hunter. It's one of the reasons he decided to go around instead of just attack from his previous position. He needed a better vantage to make sure noone and nothing is hiding outside of view.
He drags himself out of the water much like a Corockadile, slowly belly crawling towards its prey. Like most predators they are not use to being hunted and thus hardly expect or even look out for an attack.
Njuko jumps up and yells "HOORAH WAAH HHAAA!" This gives the predator a jolt forward into the water as it tries to get away from the sudden unexpected noise behind it. Plus having crawled on his belly the mud twists his image a bit.
*Shock Shot*
- 33 [normal]
The red bar above the predator has barely moved, 'it must have a lot of life but since it moved I don't think it too much or at least I hope its not' Njuko thought. He isn't afraid he has been in worse but with the number of unknowns at the moment he is at the very least uneasy at least he has his eleke.
It snarls baring its large fangs at him still not sure whether to attack the mud feels uncomfortable in the water where it doesn't belong. Njuko is under no such compulsion and swings again. The nice thing about being in the water is that even if he misses the water will conduct electricity. A thought fills him at the moment he throws his next shot. 'Shit I didn't test that, this place is different after all. Shit on my front step! What if the water isn't conductive I have to fight this thing bare handed.'

His third shot leaps to the creature next closets to the predator which happens to be a passing Razor fish. The razor has fins as sharp as razors and is a very fast agile swimmer with a short temper. Dark brown coloring and big eyes.

-5 [normal]
This shot snapped faster than the others and was the only one that made a loud noise. His eyes also glowed a little when this happened the dark of eye somehow become more pronounced. The surge feels great, he has to do something. 'No that's not right, I have to move a certain way.' he tries to replicate the moves but it's quite right he feel what he did wrong so he continues the move building a charge again.
*Shock Shot*
- 37 [normal]
The predator roars, the space under its neck has loose hanging skin which starts to inflat. Njuko swings again, hitting the side of the predator directly he so far has missed only one shot which is good as even with a weakened body some things still work as they should. The predator is trying to get closer too and tries as best as it can to move towards Njuko, each shot the predator takes is also a step closer. Baring fangs, sharp claws scrapping ever closer. He snaps his fist traveling the shortest distant possible then a small light builds and Pop!
*Shock Shot*
-40 [normal]
Again he does it he is getting closer to the proper way to snap his attack. Again he swings his first more aligned with elbow and shoulder and Snap! The light start at his shoulder travels and arrives at the same as his fist extends out!
*Shock Shot*
- 60 [shock]
Stun [3 seconds]
Leap!
- 30 [shock]
Njuko keeps at his mana is has only drained to about 80. The predator red bar is also moving down slowly. A healthy amount has been shaved it has maybe another five steps before leaving the water. Njuko is in the heat the surge of body is like jumping of a cliff sheer exhilaration. His right hand hand just snapped he takes a step closer so that the left can have a similar effect however he can tell from the moment he throws it that some of power of his left is siphoned back into his body but in return the movement is much shorter more of a pop that a snap. Which he does twice Pop! Pop!
In quick secussion while the predator is still stunned. The pops land perfect on the head and neck of the predator which is still inflating looking like Bloater. A flower that creates a bud filled with methane then when something big gets close a person the two rock like inner roots snap. Creating a spark that cause the Bud to explode and shoot its seed over the passing person. The Seed are also sharp as needles and tend to embed themselves.
*Shock Shot*
- 27 [normal]
The few sparks of lightning that had formed around the predator start to fade meaning the stun is almost gone. Instead going to his right and a snap. Njuko throws two more pops surging the energy inside. The predator move forward
*Shock Shot*
- 25 [normal]
ROAR!!
*Shock Shot*
- 22 [normal]
The pressure in the air is compressed and pushed outward from the predator the water ripple the water lily's are blasted away mud is flung into the air. Njuko who is standing in front of the creature is pushed Almost fifteen meters back.
*Blow Back*
- 56 [crippling damage]
Slowed! [10% until end of fight]
Flinched! [one second]
Njuko cough out a mouth full off blood, it felt like someone was playing the drums on his internal organs when he was hit by the blow back. They rattled and beat against each other until he came to a stop. His bones pulse firmly his energy is still surging. The predator is able to close about five meters before Njuko can move again but more important it seems to be moving rather slow. He looks at the health bar there is maybe 25% bar left if not less. The predator bellows deeply. Like a very loud Toad crock.
Njuko moves to the side thinking it's maybe an attack and he also throw a pop, pop, waiting for them to hit and they do. The power he has built flowing through his body. He already controlling it or rather the Eleke part of him knows how take and use the energy.

*Shock Shot*
- 25 [normal]
The shock fizzles into the predator, it bends in wincing in pain 'with its health it must have really felt the pain.' Njuko continues to press the beast pop it misses. As it jumped out the way but he can launch the so fast that the second pop hits it mid air. The predator tumbles to ground its obviously on its last. Njuko imagines himself using all the pent up surge energy his shoulder glows with power stronger than ever. It's not brighter exactly its like the feeling he get when he around Bilat he is just more of everything. Even his spread out like in a field around him. At that moment he finds the eyes brighter than blue looking at him right at the edge of sense for only a moment she, is so far away. He is barely able to make out her blue suit. It's full blue.
SNAP!
A bolt shoots out of Njuko, the noise crackling as it pierces the predator in the gut. Dropping the creature.
*Shock Shot*
- 120 [lightning damage]
- 60 Stun! [shock damage]
-30 Leap! [static damage]
[Critical hit] [x2]
! Killed A leoperd!
A bright red 240 appears above the predator when the bolt struck it squarely on the stomach. Njuko is really impressed, 'I really need to handle the rules of this place.' a thought darts through. He would rather not dwell on what the person he sensed. It makes sense now why he could find her early she is at least hundred meters away.
He goes to the predator, when he touches it the body fades immediately and at the bottom of his vision
